how did you handle tips?

Tips to whom? I was in a country where tipping isn’t usual so I didn’t.

which country?

In Korea tipping is considered an insult, as they take pride in their occupations.

That said I still left money for housekeeping, I just know that’s a hard job.

Just got back from Spain and actually did need Euros for a few things here and there but spent only about 100 (a few taxis, left a few Euros as tips when we got excellent service). We got the Euros at a Banco Santander in Madrid and were charged 7 Euros to use the ATM!

One other tip: Take Ubers if you are more than 2 people - they are cheap and it was cheaper to get the Uber than take public transport in some places.

I used to try hard to spend all of my foreign currency before returning home. Now I just save the euros for my next trip.

I like having cash in the local currency (use it for tips, bus fare, toilets, and small purchases—some shops have a credit card minimum).

The hotel porters and maids. Cheapskate.
